Demos > Chemical Image Recovery
Chemical Image Recovery (CIR) is the process of taking an image of a chemical drawing, with no provided information other than the defined pixels, and using a computer to recreate the original chemical data to be used or edited further. The actual chemical data, the arrangement of atoms and bonds, is digitized. We can now further process this information. Some may also refer to this function as Optical Structure Recognition (OSR).
This demo will load an image file of a chemical drawing and recover the original objects. Sample images are provided at the bottom. The result will be presented below the file input. Use ChemDoodle 2D to fully recover and edit your image files.
